My weekend

Annyong Haseyo!

I managed to escape prepping for a few hours on Saturday night and had dinner with some friends in Kangnam. It's Benihana style- food is cooked in front of you, although sans party tricks, and extra authenticity!

I was exhausted from the previous week, so after dinner and dessert (soft serve ice cream with shaved ice, red bean paste, and mangos- amazing!) I called it a night.

This morning I went for a long run which was invigorating, though hard on the lungs. I definitely notice the pollution's effect on my body. I did a few more hours of prep, then went on a mini hike with John, Jeremiah, and Marc, that eventually led us to an urban oasis, complete with a bike/running trail!

On the way home, a monsoon came out of nowhere. Walking home in the rain is always tres romantique!
